In the 80's Rodolfo Santayana, known simply as Santayana, dreamed of opening a jewelry store where he could sell beautiful fine jewelry with unique design and timeless style. With the support of his wife Marisa and their five children, he opened Santayana Jewelers in Miami on 122 ave and southwest 8th street.
Very professional team. I was upgrading my wedding ring. Rudy, using his incredible talent, passion for design and amazing software, designed a spectacular ring for me that I am extremely happy with. Phenomenal experience, I'm suprised there aren't more reviews, considering this is a family owned business for many decades.
As busy people running around town, it can be difficult to give your jewelry the upgrade it needs. As time passes by, we need to refine and maintain the jewelry we have. That's where Santayana can help through our jewelry repair store in Miami. Our experts are here to help you with all types of jewelry repair.
The diamond begins its centuries-long story in the 1st century AD with a memorable statement from Roman naturalist Pliny: Diamond. If you pay a great deal of attention to the accessories you wear and the quality of the product you. Turquoise has a strange, magical color - that's clear. Its indescribable blueish, greenish hues, (sometimes with webbing, sometimes without) are.
When shopping for engagement rings, Miami offers a bewildering array, so how can you be sure you've made the right choice?

Simply the best! I have been a customer of Santayana for years and Rudy has exceeded my expectations by far, even though I am extremely selective when it comes to jewelry. His designs are unique, elegant and gorgeous. They really provide a personalized service to each client and offer versatile styles for every taste and budget. Stacey and Nuri are just amazing and such great people. Extremely happy customer, highly recommend!

My experience at Santayana was incredible from start to finish. My fiancé and I wanted to design a wedding band with diamonds we had from both of our grandmothers. The final piece came out better than I could ever have imagined. I love my wedding band so much! Rudy helped us come up with a unique design as we had various shapes and sizes of stones. The entire process was top notch. The technology they use helped bring my vision to life right before my eyes. I could not recommend Santayana more.

What a wonderful experience all around!! From our initial visit to describe what I wanted done to my heirloom jewelry to the final result, everything was outstanding. Incredible service, incredible work, and incredible attention to detail. You have a VERY happy customer, and if I could give Santayana 10 stars, I would. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Santayana jewelers are God Sent! There store is immaculate and every piece is swoon worthy! The customer service is unmatched and their professionalism is evident. I first contacted Santayana when it came highly recommended from other ladies in the area. I was looking to fix my engagement ring that a well known jeweler (Jared’s) severely botched 2 days before my wedding. They tried to fix it but it was not nearly what it was when I was first given my ring. I had two other jewelers take a look and try to fix it but they never knew the vision of what I was explaining and did not improve the ring

Thanks to Rudy and the rest of the Santayana team, the process of picking and creating my engagement ring and wedding band was truly a pleasant experience. Rudy is an artist and was able to take the idea I had in mind and create the ring of my dreams. I love knowing my piece is one of a kind and even though it was based on an existing design, he took his own creative liberties and made it my own. The professionalism and care with which they handle each job really shines through everything they do. I can confidently say after my experience, that you are in amazing hands.

What a great jeweler! I went last weekend to get a charm for my Pandora bracelet and I was helped by the owner. She is such a delight and was nice enough to show me some other beautiful pieces they have! I'm so glad jewelers like this still exist because they have unique one of a kind jewels and price points for everyone! I will be back very soon. Thank you!

I searched online looking for a place to buy a necklace and bracelet for my granddaughter who is six years old. I had no idea what I wanted other than a necklace and bracelet, The staff was very helpful and took all the time i needed to make a decision. Store is family owned. So much better than the big box stores. I highly recommend this store and will be back for sure for any jewelry needs that might arise in the future.

Just gotta love Santayana Jewelers. Rudy Santayana Jr is such a talented jeweler. His creations are beautiful and so unique. LOVE all he does :) You'll find classic Cuban pieces there, such as coins, and newer items like the Cuban Chamilia charms, but also so much more. I'm in love with their Stencil, Heirloom, Angels & Doves, and On Fire collections. I wish I had every piece made! They have everything from high quality diamond pieces, gemstones, & pearls to silver and gold combinations. Don't forget the awesome monogram necklaces, bracelets, & rings they design

This is a Cubanita-wanna-be's dream come true. I ventured out of my comfort zone to see what the buzz was about...and I certainly wasn't disappointed. To the contrary. I was in heaven. I have posted pictures of both pieces of jewelry I bought, and it took willpower not to buy more. I love unique designs. And Santayana has them. And if you don't see it, they can create it. Besides my love of their "coins", their collection of Cuban themed charms are both unique and funny. And, to make my experience even better, the day after I did my shopping, they advertised a Valentine

This is a family owned store, the place is clean and the whole staff is friendly and knowledgeable they will do whatever it takes so that you leave a happy customer. If you are in to customize jewelery this is definitely the place to come. Rudy, who is the son is an amazing designer and he will work with you to bring your ideas to reality. Stop by and check them out, is just a matter of time before some big name star discovers them and then you will be glad you own a "Santayana".
